The ONE best fashion accessory that changed my life!! My SEWING MACHINE! I bought the cheap version at Walmart for $99, and then spent a few hours learning how to sew a seam. NOW I can shop anywhere, and buy any pair of pants that fit me. It takes 15 minutes to hem a pair of jeans. I also use my sewing machine to hem shirts! Basically any garmet can be hemmed. Now, being petite is cute and I love it.

Shopping for pants is a nightmare when you’re short. I’ve stopped and only have a couple pairs of pants. Hate shopping for pants with a passion.

These two block whoever disagrees with their “fashion sense” or whoever dares to ask questions about the legitimacy of the products they claim to “use for years”. These people are all about clicks. They do not care about the products they endorse and the garbage finds the show from Amazon.

Love this. I'm 5'2", so will utilize these tips. I hate the barrel pants though. Reminds me of my clothes in the 90s. :D

As always us petites with short torsos are left out! We don't need to make our legs look longer! We need to balance the length of our torso with the length of our legs!! Add an hourglass figure with larger bust and trying to find figure flattering clothing that actually fits is a difficult task!!

I absolutely detest the high, super high, supremely high waisted clothing out these days…I am petite…not just my inseam is petite but my torso is as well…why do designers of petite clothing not think of this. My natural waist is right around my belly button…what do I do with 2-4 inches of extra fabric? Wearing pants that come up so high - just slightly below my chest is not comfortable and is not a good look!

The links are all mixed up for the items …. R they proofed before posting?

[ambervirk]

[AnaStevens]

The lady wearing the white vest, can you confirm the name of the jean she’s wearing? I know she said Dynamite but I can’t see the link of the pants. Thank you.

Link to the cropped trench please for USA.

[mwahha]

The idea of buying everything cropped is a cop out, there’s lots of petite designs out there that deal with longer shapes 😂 many actress’ are petite

[bob-gzpx]

Your links don't work. They link to the wrong items. And why are all three of them yelling?

[td]

Anybody know the name of the barrel jeans

[cleanqueen]

The pants on the left the side seam is twisted! I sew and it’s like the grain is off!
